    Pastor's Message

Welcome to the website of the Calvary Baptist Church.  This is a church with a great history. 

I am a Scioto County Native. All but nine years of my life I have called this area my home.  In that time, I have been able to see the nearly 100,000 people that desperately need a witness.  It is the goal of our church to reach each and every person for God and his glory. 

I am now in my third year as the pastor of the Calvary Baptist Church and I must say that our God has truly been faithful.  God has allowed us to see the great need our region has for the work and Word of God.  Though many would say that the economy, or the prevalence of drugs and crime are the problem with our region, we believe that those are only symptoms of the greater problem.  The problem with our region is that there is an absence of Christ.  Nearly 80 percent of the people in Scioto County say that they have a church home but less than 10 percent attend that church faithfully.  This is a trend that must be reversed.  It is this problem that the Calvary Baptist Church has committed itself to address and change.  

Our church is in the heart of the Ohio River Valley and is easily accessible from Scioto, Pike, Lawrence and Greenup counties.  We have made a commitment to reach each family in the surrounding region that God has given us.  We invite you to come and visit us and pray about your part in God's work.

Holding Fast...
Titus 1:9
